Luke 16:26

Beside all this] better, 'in all these regions of the dead.' A great gulf fixed] Somewhat different from the representations of the rabbis, who said (see Ecclesiastes 7:14), 'God hath set the one against the other, i.e. Hell and Paradise. How far are they distant? A hand's breadth. Rabbi Jochanan saith, A wall is between. But the rabbis say, They are so even with one another, that you may see out of one into the other': cp. Revelation 14:10.
